Demi Lovato Is Open About Their Sexuality and Gender Identity

Is Demi Lovato bisexual? The "Anyone" singer opened up about the "emotional" moment they came out to their parents in 2017, and how they reacted to the news.

Singer Demi Lovato has dated some of the most gifted actors, musicians, and sportsmen in Los Angeles and beyond. 

The singer's most recent relationship was with Max Ehrich, a professional baseball outfielder, whom they were going out with for a few months toward the tip of 2019.

Before Max got here along, Demi pursued long-term affairs with Henry Alexander Levy, Wilmer Valderrama, and Joe Jonas. 

The innovative feedback about sexual positivity led some fanatics to wonder: is Demi Lovato bisexual?

Demi Lovato opens up about popping out as bisexual to her oldsters.

On Jan. 30, 2020, the pop singer sat down with Andy Cohen on Radio Andy on SiriusXM and talked about their sexuality. Explaining to the host that they came out to her circle of relatives in 2017, telling their oldsters that they saw themself “ending up perhaps with a girl."

They continued, “It was actually, like emotional, but really beautiful. After everything was done I was like shaking and crying and I just felt overwhelmed.” 

Luckily, the former Disney star said that their parents were extremely "supportive."

“My mom was the one that I was like super nervous about, but she was just like, ‘I just want you to be happy,'" the "Anyone" singer instructed Andy. “That was so beautiful and superb, and like I said, I’m so grateful.”

“I don’t know what my future seems like,” Demi persevered. “I don’t know if I’m going to have kids this 12 months or in 10 years. I don’t know if I’m going to do it with a spouse or without.”

Demi Lovato later got here out as pansexual and non-binary in 2021.

In an look on Joe Rogan's podcast in March 2021, Demi later clarified that they really identify with pansexual more than bisexual whilst talking about potentially having children.

“I don’t know. I’m so fluid now, and a part of the reason why I am so fluid is as a result of I used to be super closeted off,” they informed the host.

“What do they name that? ‘Pansexual?’” Joe answered.

“Yeah, pansexual,” Demi said. “[I like] the rest, really... I’m part of the alphabet mafia and proud.”

Then in May 2021, Demi introduced they were non-binary within the trailer for their new podcast, 4D With Demi.

"Over the past year and a half I've been doing some healing and self-reflective work, and through this work, I've had the revelation that I identify as non-binary," they said. "With that being said, I'll officially be changing my pronouns to they/them."

The podcast, which will also be streamed on their YouTube channel, options Alok Vaid-Menon, a non-binary creator, artist, and media character.

"I want to make it clear that I'm still learning and coming into myself, and I don't claim to be an expert or a spokesperson," Demi said when introducing their first visitor.

Demi Lovato has spoken about the importance of embracing sexual positivity on many occasions.

"If you want to dye your hair purple, dye your hair purple. If you want to love someone of the same sex, love someone of the same sex. Be yourself and don't be afraid of what people think," the singer and actress emphasized in an interview recorded at the Teen Vogue Summit.

“I’m very fluid [...] I feel love is love. You can find it in any gender. I like the freedom of being able to flirt with whoever I would like," they mentioned in some other interview with InStyle. 

Although Demi's long-term relationships were predominantly with men — they dated Wilmer Valderrama for six years, for instance — Demi also went out with Ruby Rose and Lauren Abedini in the past. 

Demi met the Orange Is the New Black actress in 2011. They were friends for years, and it was only around 2015 that the first news about a potential fling emerged. By 2018, half of Instagram was abuzz with excitement about the super-flirtatious comments they left under each other's posts, Metro notes.

Shortly before their relationship with Ruby began, Demi was going out with Los Angeles-based DJ, Lauren Abedini. The duo was first spotted holding hands during a romantic outing to Disneyland, and they became official in 2017, 

As rumor has it, Lauren served as the main inspiration behind some of the songs on "Tell Me You Love Me." According to Elite Daily, "Only Forever" and "Sexy Dirty Love" were the most likely to reference Demi's relationship with the musician.

In the summer of 2018, Demi made the headlines by sharing a sensuous kiss with fellow singer Kehlani during one of the concerts held as part of their "Tell Me You Love Me" tour. Fans reacted to the unexpected turn of events with the utmost enthusiasm, with many taking it to social media to express their joy. 

However, the on-stage kissing isn't the best part of the story. As Demi explained in a previous interview with Hello Giggles, the heart-warming scene wasn't planned. Kehlani decided to surprise her at the very last minute, as a romantic gesture. 

"She got here up in the back of me. I had no thought! [...] She informed me she was once going to be watching the show, so I was looking for her, and I didn’t see her available in the market so I used to be like, 'OK, I guess she determined to head or no matter.' And then all [of a] sudden I feel fingers on my shoulders for this song, "Lonely." I look up and it’s her," Demi advised the online magazine.
